Sherrie is a remarkable person, leader, coach and mentor. I rarely ever met a person with such a true and authentic desire to help other people. She walks her talk with her exceptional integrity, compassion, and intelligence. She is an invaluable source of inspiration and empowerment to me and I highly recommend her coaching to anyone ready to challenge status quo and become a better human being and leader.

I never imagined that leadership coaching could have such dramatic impact. Sherrie provided tremendous help in my transition to the new role as an interim dean. She has the amazing ability to quickly and accurately assess my strengths and weakness so that she could build a personalized coaching plan tailored to my background. Sherrie introduced to me the concept of different energy levels, which are extremely valuable in facing any challenge in work and life. Sherrie made me think deeply about my career and focus on the big picture in making decisions. Sherrie can tap into her enormous leadership experiences and offer me advice on every aspect of my work.

As a former Wall Street Trader and Arbitrageur, and now a successful Investment Advisor, I am a numbers guy and rely heavily on things I can count and measure. Furthermore, I am also the quintessential skeptic. I have always been particularly skeptical of “so called coaches” be they life coaches or leadership coaches or any other form of “hocus pocus self-help guru.” I knew Mrs. Littlejohn for some time while she worked in the banking industry and was aware she had transitioned to leadership coaching. I thought it would be worth a try with her. It has turned out to be one of the best investments in my career I have ever made. To be clear the diagnostic alone was worth the investment however, Mrs. Littlejohn’s insight gave me real clarity into my emotional triggers. The result for me has been emotional intelligence. I am now mentally ahead of my feelings allowing me the opportunity to decide how I will respond instead of reacting to events in real time. It was not a transformation of my personality but more a smoothing of the rough edges an understanding of my own strengths and weaknesses empowering me to act deliberately in my interactions. I would recommend Mrs. Littlejohn to anyone serious about real professional growth with measurable results.

Working with Sherrie was terrific. Her deep experience combined with a rare sensitivity to identify the exact moment, topic, personality pattern (crux of the matter) and flip this into a learning moment is immediately transformative. Through this work I developed my personal leadership style to better support the goals of the organization I serve and lead. I developed the confidence to contribute my whole self to work each day.

I certainly benefited from the program focused on Energy Leadership Coaching. I learned a great deal from Sherrie Littlejohn. In these sessions, I studied and learned the structure and makeup of different levels of energy and techniques to maintain and channel them in my daily work. Sherrie is a great coach, a radiant person with very positive energy. Her insights, based on her own impressive experiences and backgrounds, were most helpful to me. Talking and discussing with her helped to raise my self-consciousness and awareness including both my strengths and limitations, which is extremely important in our job as a leader in our work. I definitely recommend her program to my colleagues and collaborators.

I have had the opportunity and have been fortunate enough to have Sherrie Littlejohn as my executive coach for the Emerge Academy 2018 – 2019. Words cannot express the change and impact she has made on my life. She not only is experienced and well connected within the Technology industry; she is always thoughtful, open minded, and consistently comes from a place of what is best for me considering the two shoes I am standing in. She is an unbelievable example for Technology professionals, especially for women of color continuing on the path to success for which she as well as many others continue to pave the road.

Sherrie Littlejohn was my executive coach from 2018-2019 while I participated in the ITSMF Emerge Academy. Sherrie is thoughtful, articulate, empathetic and brilliant. As an executive coach she provided me with guidance and tools to aid in my personal and professional growth. Now I am a more empathic, effective, and a multi-dimensional leader. Sherrie helped me to become more self-aware and confident. The growth I experienced under Sherrie was one of the key reasons I was promoted to Assistant Vice President of IT at my organization. The most amazing thing about Sherrie is that even after the official coaching is complete, she is still there to help and inspire. Her experience, heart of gold and 'keep it real' style make her an awesome executive coach. It was a phenomenal experience.

Working with Sherrie was a pleasant, thought-provoking, and fulfilling endeavor. She was instrumental in directing me to realize my true potential. Sherrie's holistic approach to career management and upward mobility are impeccable, which eliminates linear thinking which could impede one's career trajectory. My sessions with her were rewarding and educational. Her industry experience coupled with her coaching expertise makes Sherrie an invaluable commodity to any career-oriented professional. Thanks for all the support, Sherrie!

When I met Sherrie, I was at the crossroad of indecision and borderline indifference. I wanted a break from myself, from my views of the world at large, and from what I thought was my inability to do something that mattered. That break came in the form of a firestorm known as Sherrie helped me to order my thoughts, to reflect on them, and gave me the permission, I didn't know I was seeking, to abandon the things I didn't want. I never realized my need to control outcomes or the pride I felt when I judged things quickly, sometimes accurately, but not necessarily completely. Sherrie encouraged me to be more curious and less judgmental; to view myself more holistically and not just tactically. I learned balance (we can all win - some win bigger, but we all win). Sherrie reminded me that fear is draining, faith is freeing. My indecisiveness was rooted in fear, not lack of opportunity or ability. I re-discovered my passion and realized I wasn't dissatisfied with life, I was bored. And even that was within my power to fix. My sessions with Sherrie have positively impacted my relationship with my family, my friends, clients, et. al. I now understand with absolute clarity, that in the great plan of the Creator, within the intricate structure of the universe, and the billions of people that occupy the planet, that I, too, have a place, a voice, and a purpose. It's up to me how I use it. I love the blog, emails, and texts that are so very encouraging.

Sherrie is a true mind shifter and an incredible coach. She truly brings in the authentic aspect of coaching and brings out the best in you. Her insight and mechanisms helped me really hone my skills and be a true version of myself. I enjoyed my time with Littlejohn Leadership Coaching and Consulting, and I cannot express how many “aha” moments I experienced with my sessions with her. What I found extremely unique about her style is the way she not only connects with personal stories, but also uses it as a path to help you go forth unafraid!
